The Waynesville Merchants Association is hosting Waynesville's Second Saturday Street Faire which will be held Aug 9th. There will be several community events being held as part of the Street Faire including a free Book Swap, a Cruise-In from 1-5pm, a Ghost Dinner & Tour at 5:30pm (reservations required 513-897-3779), and a Plein Air Art Contest. Second Saturday Street Faire is funded in part by grants from the Ohio Arts Council as well as donations from the Waynesville Area Chamber of Commerce, The Dedication Band, Canada Goose Gallery, and other local area merchants.

There is no entry fee for the Plein Air Art Contest but artists should register by emailing their contact info to info@secondsaturdaystroll.com. Art work will be judged and prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will be awarded based upon the judges decisions. A "People's Choice" award will also be given based upon the voting of visitors at the Street Faire. Up to $400 in prize money will be awarded.

Over 40 artisans and crafters will be featuring and selling their hand crafted items from 10am-5pm in the festival area. A "Krafty Kid's Market" has been added this year. Young crafters ages seven through sixteen can apply for a card table sized space to set up to sell their 100% kid-crafted items. What a fun way to teach children about entrepreneurship! Parents approval is required for participation. See our website for more information www.secondsaturdaystreetfaire.com

There is a free Cruise-in from 1pm-5pm at the LCNB Parking Lot at the corner of Main St. and North St. All car owners are welcome to bring any make or model of car to participate. Special guest clubs this month include Corvette Troy and Buick Enthusiasts. DJ Mike Cox will be spinning the oldies and there will be prize drawings every 30 minutes.

After the Street Faire, Waynesville's Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring 'Alive at Night' which will be a music festival held in the parking lot of the Stone House Tavern starting at 6:00 pm with the band "Barely Able". Bring along a lawn chair and enjoy an evening of free music.
